haven't played in a long time up until the new season dropping, new season feels good though.
new map is a lot of fun, revival gamemode is a great addition.
Outlines on enemies is a good change, healthbars in cqb is a good change.
perk reworks are good, free battlepass through challenges is a nice addition.
The whole battlepass scandal i personally don't care about, it's a free game idgaf if they
want to charge money for a battlepass, feels like a lot of people are sheep brain yapping hella hard on this issue.
Still some issues with audio from time to time but haven't had any netcode/network related issues except a few rare headshot noregs.
Overall a good season i'd say so far and a strong start, come back and play if you enjoy apex.

In a vacuum this game is very enjoyable, the graphics are clean, animations are fluid and the gameplay is fun,
problem is as a new player you're forced to be matched against veteran players of this game because of the small playerbase, the community is incredibly unfriendly towards people who are learning and enemy players will deliberately focus you down when they realize you're a new and unexperienced user.
The game also has a huge problem with verticality, some characters have passives and abilities that let them spacebar around like straight out of a looney toon, it's incredibly frustrating fighting characters that bounce around on your screen so rapidly, a jump button has no place in this game and especially passives that enchance this ability, don't understand why the devs are keeping it around other than satisfying the "hurr i can't jump in this game ree" players.
This problem becomes exponentially worse when you consider that characters basic attacks/abilities have travel time and in many cases you have to lead your shots when enemies are strafing left and right, this wouldn't be that bothersome if people wouldn't spam spacebar the entire time and throw their hitboxes around like crazy, now introduce a character that gets double the jump height or a character that can jump 3 times, inconsistency like that just breeds frustration.

They really thought they could slip a quick one on us, Big L Sony game still unavailable in 180 countries.

Gameplay is butter smooth. (with a controller) Mouse movement isn't calculated hardware-side unfortunately.
story is rich, very enjoyable. Could have more sassy Aloy though. (Sassy Aloy is best Aloy)
Progression is fun, Map is great to explore.
Game can be quite the challenge if you play on the harder difficulties, in a good, fun way where you're actually exceptionally rewarded for pre-planning encounters, setting up traps and playing to elemental weaknesses. very well done.

Very fun in short sessions but gets repetitive very fast.
you can only laugh at the same thing over and over with your friends so many times before it gets stale.

It's a game.
It does the game part of the game very well.









OH MY GOD LET ME SKIP ALL THE CUTSCENES PLEASE

Needs more hoarding bugs
Asking for a friend.

Does what it's supposed to do, wuhooo

Game is fun, runs a lot smoother with dlss and fsr options now, wish true solo/singleplayer private matches were a thing.
Music could be more involved in gameplay, the best moments are always when a horde comes running in and the OST kicks in full swing but sometimes it's very short-lived.
Otherwise no other complaints, only lvl 21 so far so i haven't had a chance to dig into the end-game yet.

Atmosphere got me actin' up.
solid game.
